Hi Atlantic-
When I first went to see her I was consuming between 800-1000 calories per day. She said I needed to be closer to 2000 with as much as I was working out (2-4 hours/day- running, P90X, swimming), but that I should shoot for eating 1200/day for 2 weeks, and then add slowly from there.
I looked on-line specifically for a sports nutritionist and found that she works with a lot of swimmers, so she "gets it". :bliss:
She also asked that at my next physical that my NP check for certain labs, I can look them up for you if you want to know what they are.
